I mean like, actually understand beyond just exchanging a few words a day. Like knowing hobbies, favorite foods, political opinions, favorite tv/movie/youtube channels/music/genre of entertainment, etc… overall likes and dislikes… you know what I mean…
As to why I’m asking: I feel like my family is just a bunch of strangers sometimes…
I feel like nobody really understands me.


I don’t really understand my parents and they don’t understand me. And I don’t really understand my kids and they don’t really understand me.
I feel like the only person who really understands me is my wife.
